General :: Connect To Telstra Bigpond Wireless Internet On My Laptop?

Oct 21, 2010

I have been using Telstra Bigpond Wireless Broadband USB Internet for about 12 months on my Laptop with Windows Vista Operating System.

I also have an Eee PC Notebook (Linux Operating System)that previously connected to the Internet via Desktop Wireless Modem.

The problem I have now is trying to connect to the internet on my Linux Notebook using Telstra Bigpond Wireless Broadband USB.

I have phoned Telstra Technical Assistance and the told me they cannot help me because the Operating System is Linux.

Ubuntu Networking :: Can't Install Telstra Bigpond Mobile Broadband On 10.10, 10.04, 9.10?

Feb 11, 2011

I need help on how to install Telstra Bigpond Mobile broadband . The dongel is a ZTE model MF633BP+ Mobile Card. I have tried with Ubuntu 10.10, 10.04 and 9.10 but all I can get is a message saying it is disconnected. The computer is a modified Optima with a new motherboard, RAM and power supply with a 120GB hard drive.The hard drive is empty so which of the Ubuntu models suits a geriatic old fart of 67 like me who has only low computer skills.

PS I think I have also sent this request to a wrong address on these forums.

General :: Can't Connect Via Wired Internet ( Wireless Is OK ) On HP G61 Laptop With Ubuntu 10.4?

May 25, 2010

I have recently installed Ubuntu lucid lynx and at my old house I had a regular cable modem (no wifi) and never used wireless internet. I would simply unplug the ethernet from the windows desktop plug it to my laptop and I was good 2 go.have recently moved and my roommate has a cable modem w/ wifi capabilities. When I plug in I am told that I am connected but......Nothing. dont know if the problem is due to the modem having wireless capabilities when my old one did not or the fact that my roommate has a win7 laptop that is connected via wifi etc. There have been a FEW times that I have walked out plugged in and everything has ran well. when I do plug in I look under connection information and I am told that I am connected at 100Mbps but whenever I try to visit a page I am out of luck. I define newbie (as far as Linux distros) and I have tried everything including going to work w/no sleep because I'm going through massive trial & errors

General :: Connect Laptop To The Internet?

Jul 30, 2010

For how long I have suffered with ms. I have installed a couple of Linux versions 7-10 years back,and did not get very far with them, am still a newbie when I look at some of the stuff in Linux, but am willing to learn and am totally converted.

Am running
Laptop HP Pavillion dv6000
Mint 2.6.31-14 Generic
Modem Huawei E220

I have downloaded 9 files from: source code, exe x2, makefile, txt,and 2 shell script files. The exe files give me the msg "could not display file name etc" There is no app installed for exe files What dont I know and where can I find it. Would it be easier to take the machine to an internet cafe and plug in a cable to get it online, atm my other machine is a eee pc windows 7 starter and it has some weird stuff going on, says it has over 10 viruses? Anyway cant wait to get this over to Linux too.

General :: Cannot Connect Acer Aspire 3000 Laptop To ISP Clear Internet

Jul 25, 2011

My landlord upstairs just got a new modem and WiFi by Clear.com and when trying to get the WiFi to work...it just wouldn't connect with my laptop. They have 2 computers upstairs, one laptop and one desktop that recognized the WiFi and don't have any trouble using it. Wondering if there is something I have accidently clicked or changed to make it not connect. It does not have an error message, it just does not connect completely.

General :: Internet - Cannot Connect To The Wireless Network

Jan 2, 2011

I am a LINUX newbie using Ubuntu. I love it so far but I am having issues. I cannot connect to the wireless network that I am using with my other Windows PC. The problem in my opinion is that the wireless device I use isn't operating. No light comes on the device. I am not sure how to "find hardware" with Ubuntu.

General :: Ubuntu 10.10 Can't Connect To Wireless Internet But Windows Can?

Apr 8, 2011

I have a dual boot laptop. It has both Ubuntu 10.10 and Windows 7 running on the same machine. Windows can connect to the wireless flawlessly, however, Ubuntu seems to be so fuzzy. The first time, it can connect to the wireless internet in the dormitory. The succeeding days, the network icon just keeps on turning as if it's trying to connect. What's wrong? Is it because of the drivers? If that's the case, then why are there times when I can connect to the wireless internet?

General :: Can't Connect To Internet Using Wireless On Ubuntu 10.10 Despite Having A Connection

Dec 24, 2010

I would like some help setting up using a wireless connection. I can connect using wired connection, and I have no trouble browsing. I have a strong wireless connection as well; however, when I try to browse I get a server not found error. I did download the necessary drivers. Before that, I didn't have a wireless connection. I was able to connect on this pc before the install, and all other devices still connect using wireless. I have a linksys router.

The one thing that stands out at me is the ip address that it says the wireless connection is using. It says it is 10.42.43.1
I feel like that might be problematic because I'm pretty sure my router only accepts connections with values that are between 192.168.1.100 and 192.168.1.200.

Software :: Not Recognising New Telstra Turbo Wireless Modem

Feb 13, 2010

I've clean installed over a friend's win98 with Mint 7 (disc from lab a year? or so ago).

My Optus modem prompted the wizard and now always works fine,ok speed, and I updated Mint with 300 new files etc.

But my friend's new Telstra Turbo modem,[Sierra brand] although it shows a blue light flashing, doesn't get the wizard connection process started, and there's just NO sign on Mint that it's plugged in.

If I can get it to work, it will increase the number of people I know who use linux to 1.

My wireless network is being detected but it refuses to connect to it. I am entering the accurate passcode and I have tried doing various commands for it to work, but it is being stubborn.

Also, it would help to know which WEP Index to use and type of Authentication.

Ubuntu Networking :: Laptop Can't Connect To Internet?

Aug 10, 2010

I have finally gotten my courage up and decided to take the plunge into Linux. I bought a used HP Pavilion zt1135 laptop, and loaded Ubuntu 10.04. The laptop has no other operating system on it. Everything seems to work fine except it won't connect to the internet. I am using a Comcast cable modem, which uses DHCP and a wired connection. It works fine on my XP computer, but on the Ubuntu laptop it claims there is no network connected. Firefox gives a message something like "No server found".

I have tried recycling the power to the modem and then booting up the laptop. I have tried unchecking "Enable Networking" and then re-checking it. I have checked the ethernet cable on another machine and found it OK. Is it possible Ubuntu does not have drivers for this laptop's ethernet connection, or that the laptop is defective?

Ubuntu Networking :: Can't Connect To Internet From Laptop

May 15, 2011

Sorry if this is already posted, but I wasnt sure the right keywords to use the search feature... I am somewhat familiar with older Ubuntu, but recently got 11.04 and installed it on my girlfriends laptop and during installation when it was scanning for the DHCP or whatever it says it failed to find it or something or other and it gave options to do it manually or to do it later so I chose to do it later and after booting into the OS I can not do anything via the internet, not even updates. I have tried looking at the network connections and the only thing there is a wired connection. This laptop accesses the internet through a desktop with Cox cable internet and a wireless router...
